southernwreck242's 1998 Honda Civic

I am a little late on this i bought the car when it was completely stock it was a basic ex with hubcaps

I have started with wheels and lowering it 1.75" and the wheels were 18" oz rally superleggeras it wasnt the best looking the or

iginal color was milano red

Then i got a good deal to convert from the 1998 to the 2000 front end conversion as you can see in the pictures

i only changed the tail lights because i had somebody come to my house with a baseball bat and got them cheap

I swapped it with a JDM spec B18c GSR it has like

30K original miles the guy said but you know how that goes i took the valve cover off everything was clean!!! It has a B16 tranny off of a 2000 civic si a

nd a stage 2 competition clutch and 11 1/2 lb. flywheel

AEM cold air and dc sports header i ordered some ebay exhaust called srs n1 it has a little angle not much but it sounds alright and it hel

ped a little on power

I got in a wreck and bent my strut on the

front right and messed up some other stuff so i switch to Ebay coilovers and i got KYB AGX struts front and KYB in rear short shitfter and swede shift boot

I have a 7 in" flip out touch screen DVD radio with 2 12" subs in a cus tom built box to sink them in the floor for a clean look seal all the way around and a 1400 watt amp I switched to some maxxim 16" wheels i do not know which ones though??

Then i got my body work done and i wanted my civic to be black so i decided to paint it black so the sront end would finally match so these pictures are right after pulling it out of my garage painting!

Nice clean civic, I was wondering how easy was installing the 2000 front end? I am considering it on my civic.
